Well I almost hesitate to say this. We have glorious sunshine and 6⁰. At this rate it will actually be warm standing in the sun for our coffee stop.
Today's, favourite, cafe is opposite a park with benches. We will grab coffee and cake and hopefully bask in spring sunshine.
Apologies to all those under grey skies. Now I really must get going

One of my male relatives is clueless when it comes to domestic chores . When his wife was away from home I was convinced she left instructions “ The microwave has a square window the washing machine has a round window “. In his in defence his DIY skills are far superior to mine.
Long time (12 months) since I have had any cycling or gardening type gear to wash .... that simplifies things a lot.

You didn't take my bleach vaccine suggestion seriously did you ??Morning all
Feel like I've been put through a mangle this morning.
I've figured out that the Covid vaccine side effects take about 12 hours to manifest themselves.
2.30 this morning - mind racing all over the place, chills and aching legs/hips. Kept me awake for the rest of the night.
All seems OK now though. Seem to have subsided as quickly as they came on.
Deffo will be needing an afternoon nap today.
Apart from a sore arm for 24 hours I had no side effects

Not so windy now but forecast is for showers so need to wait a bit before deciding on anything outdoors. Checked out the Glengorm route yesterday but too many people around and is still only February. Ardmore car park full and more cars than expected. Forestry are having a clear out harvesting up here which does not help and changed the appearance to more like 50 years ago.
When I was out on the trike the other day I could have sworn I saw Mo out running and jogging on the same road as me. Right age group and fit and much as I would expect her to be like. Somebody I have never seen before but obviously well practiced as she was faster on foot than me on my trike.

MtsD is going to try and wash her hair (when she crawls out of bed)......sad to see isn't it.
Not that you have seen MrsD crawl out of bed but you know what I mean.

Windy here too but it’s looking like being a good settled spell ahead at last.
I'm a bit the same.
I can totally strip, tune and reassemble a Honda Fireblade, or pretty much any other motorcycle engine - just don't ask me to work on a car. I can work my way through most computer problems - but just don't ask me to figure out our washing machine programme.
I have always been useless at mechanical things.
Aged 15 I turned down an apprenticeship as a plumber as an office job paid more. BIG mistake.
I have found that people who are handy at one job eg plumber, joiner etc can turn their hand to other things. I can only stare with envy.
Pity the beaches will be rammed 🤭
They've been fairly quiet so far.
Ear worms - don't you just hate them?
Had a guitar riff going through my mind for the past two days and couldn't remember the song.
It suddenly came to me as I was brushing my teeth this morning.
Weird innit?
It was the opening bars to this.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I have been doing houseworky stuff. I got my marigolds on and tackled the bathroom, cleaned the dishes, vacuumed, dusted, made the bed yada yada. I have been a good girl. I deserve a cup of coffee now
